Entertainment, I am a great artist

In fact, Fang Yi didn't have to wait long. He Sanni called the next day.

The experts from Luzhou Museum have arrived.

Not only the curator Mr. Li, researcher Gao Nanyan and others, but also experts from all continents invited by Mr. Li.

Scholar with glasses.

Honest and honest craftsmen.

The gray-haired professor.

Everyone has different industries, but the purpose is the same. When they heard that Mr. Li asked to be a blue and white porcelain verification expert, everyone immediately bought a plane ticket and arrived in Luzhou.

The blue and white porcelain represents the heritage of the Blue Star culture and is the testimony of the Blue Star civilization.

If you just see the real thing, it won't make everyone crazy.

But on-site verification is great. After all, even if you sign a non-disclosure agreement, you can always know the production process.

This is very exciting.

It's like a secret that no one else knows, but you know it yourself, and you feel an inexplicable sense of superiority in your heart.

What's more, it is still a century-old mystery like blue and white porcelain.

When Fang Yi arrived at the production center, the workshop was already full of experts who demonstrated.

According to He Sanni's arrangement, I wanted to arrange a seat for everyone, but everyone obviously couldn't wait.

"Okay, Lao He, we are all colleagues, so there is no need to be so polite."

"Yes, let's start making as soon as possible."

"We're not too old to stand up."

"I can see the craftsmanship of blue and white porcelain, even if I am kneeling, I can finish it."

……

Everyone's opinions are very unified.

He Sanni couldn't help shaking his head helplessly.He signaled to Fang Yi.

Fang Yi nodded, and first walked to the stacked clay.

Blue and white porcelain, the raw material used is different from ordinary clay, it must be cobalt ore containing cobalt oxide as raw material.

Fang Yi had already checked yesterday.

The clay in Luzhou contains cobalt oxide, which is probably one of the reasons why Luzhou became a ceramic center in ancient times.

However, due to the loss of blue and white porcelain craftsmanship, the current Luzhou ceramics have much less understanding of this aspect.

The content of cobalt oxide in clay is uneven.

However, this is not difficult.

The clay containing cobalt oxide will appear slightly pink or brown. To ordinary people, it is just that the color of the clay is darker, but in Fang Yi's eyes, it is black and white.

After looking around, I noticed that one of the clay contained the correct content of cobalt oxide.

It only needs to be rubbed a little more, and it is an excellent raw material for making blue and white porcelain.

Fang Yi stepped forward and selected Tao Ni.

Returning to the chopping board, he suddenly threw the clay on the chopping board, and then, interlaced his hands, began to knead. The addition of advanced ceramic technology made Fang Yi's hands like flying flowers picking leaves.

Professionals from all walks of life are a little excited.

This is a craft hundreds of years ago. Unexpectedly, it can be staged again in my own lifetime.

Fang Yi's various movements have also become the best commentary on making blue and white porcelain.

"It turns out that before making blue and white porcelain, the clay must be kneaded first."

"Have you noticed? Qingfeng's hand moves clockwise. Maybe there is a certain way here."

"I think the temperature is the key. As the hands transfer heat to the clay, the clay softens significantly."

……

Everyone whispered, guessed, and recorded.

Knead!

Clockwise!
temperature!

These details that even Fang Yi did not pay attention to were excavated one by one.

Of course, more experts will not discuss, but record more content they see in their notebooks.

During the ten-minute kneading process, some experts even wrote thousands of words.

After mixing the cobalt oxide in the clay evenly, Fang Yi put the clay on the turntable, and when the switch was turned on, the clay started to spin rapidly.

Fang Yi also breathed a sigh of relief. It was still too tiring to mix clay with his hands, so he couldn't help but wipe the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand.

The experts suddenly discovered the New World.

"Hey, have you noticed that you need to mix sweat into the mixed clay?"

"Xiao Liu, check it out right away, what is the composition of sweat?"

"Everyone pay attention to the dosage, Qingfeng just wiped the sweat off his forehead."

"Why only use the sweat from your forehead?"

"The sweat on the forehead is the cleanest, but there may be dust on the cheeks."

……

Amid everyone's whispers, Fang Yi began to shape the clay.

Today, what he wants to do is a porcelain jar.

Compared with porcelain bottles, the production of porcelain jars is a little easier, and when drawing the picture of the jar body, there is also a greater interface to play.

With the rotation of the turntable, the shape of the clay pot is gradually formed.

At this moment, a staff member who was assisting by the side stepped forward.

"Qingfeng, do you need some water?"

"No need." Fang Yi shook his head.

The function of clear water is mainly used to maintain the smoothness of the surface of the tank body during modeling, which is very necessary for ordinary ceramic artists.

After all, it is too difficult to create a smooth bottle with just hands.

But Fang Yi has advanced ceramic production skills. In fact, he has considered the softness and hardness of the clay when mixing the clay.

Therefore, this point is not a problem for Fang Yi.

But in the eyes of experts, it has become the craftsmanship feature of blue and white porcelain.

"It turns out that the production of blue and white porcelain depends entirely on the skill of the hands."

"I think that clear water will dilute the salt content of the sweat."

"It is only now that I finally understand where my failure in restoring the blue and white porcelain lies."

……

The experts expressed some emotion and some regret.

It turns out that the secret of making blue and white porcelain is not complicated, just a little sweat and a pair of nimble hands are all it takes. If you knew this a long time ago, it would be a teenager's turn to break through this craft.

What a pity, what a pity.

An expert looked at He Sanni next to him.

"Old He, mixed with sweat, you also discovered this by chance, right?"

"Any fruit needs to be watered by sweat."

He Sanni said vaguely.

In fact, she didn't know when Fang Yi mastered the making of blue and white porcelain. She originally thought about asking Fang Yi today, but who knew why these experts were in such a hurry.

Everyone knew that Qingfeng was his apprentice.

Of course, what the apprentice knows, the master himself should also know, so I can only be vague.

According to everyone's various interpretations, Fang Yi has already handled the shape of the can body.

When sending the can body into the kiln for the first firing, the expert team rushed to the furnace together.

temperature!

Heat!
time!

Record them next to each other.

He Sanni then moved closer to Fang Yi, "Apprentice, is the secret of blue and white porcelain mixed with sweat?"

"Sweat?"

"Yes, everyone said that you just sweated a lot."

Fang Yi was a little confused.

This is just an ordinary carcass production. Don’t you realize that the carcass produced today is no different from other pottery?

Are they experts?
Are you really here to verify?
